No imager flats taken since I did not want to put the imager on and off all by myself. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Building MCP fiducial tables. -------------------------------- Wendell reported that ALT #3 and #5 fiducials could not be read going up even after cleaning it twice. Since the differences between last month's and this month's tables are small, I decided not to check in this month's table. New fiducial tables v1_10 are checked in and declared current. Spectro Monthly Checkout -------------------------- T=10.5C --- a bit higher temperature than what we might get in few days. Original coll. positions. sp1 Coll_motor_A -2243 Coll_motor_B -2243 Coll_motor_C -10230 sp2 Coll_motor_A -1582 Coll_motor_B -1586 Coll_motor_C -1585 Fibers left-to-right positions GOOD Wavelegnth coverage GOOD Focus check ------------- r1 required "mechPiston 3362" r2 required "mechPiston 1744" Final coll. positions: sp1 Coll_motor_A 1131 Coll_motor_B 1119 Coll_motor_C -6881 sp2 Coll_motor_A 163 Coll_motor_B 160 Coll_motor_C 162 Displayed the bias frame 2323. All four CCDs looked good. apo_ploabias looked normal.

I got a makeRunLog failed message for run4236 which was taken hours ago after endDrift of run4237. The following is the message I got. makeRunLog failed for run 4236. I have the following diagnostics plus check the murmur log and your screen history: error writing "stderr": I/O error After running "checkBias", I took a look at the gif images created and placed at http://sdsshost.apo.nmsu.edu/skycat/imager/52956/ The plots' axis labels are not always easy to read on the www page. I compared the plots to those from 52870 run 4061. The shape of the plots look very similar, but some of the chips have slightly higher or lower values compared to the run4061. Connie, how different is bad ? Checked the bias images idMosaic-004237-0025.fit idMosaicAstro-004237-0025.fit and saw nothing unusual. biasCheck results: CCD 11 Offset.
